REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS OF THE MANAGEMENT COMPANY

The Board of Directors of ABL Asset Management Company Limited, the management company of ABL Income Fund (ABL-IF), is pleased to present the Condensed Interim Financial Statements (un-audited) of ABL Income Fund for the quarter ended September 30, 2016.

ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE REVIEW

Pakistan’s economic indicators remained steady during the period under review as release of last tranche by IMF under its USD6.4bn facility worth USD102mn marked successful completion of the program. This landmark was achieved by meeting majority of lender’s stringent quarterly criteria which portrays government’s strong willingness and commitment towards economic reforms. SBP, keeping in view uncertainties in international commodity and financial markets and its subsequent impact on country’s key macroeconomic indicators maintained policy rate at record low level of 5.75%.

Increase in food prices and house rent drove inflation higher in 1QFY17, with CPI for 1QFY17 coming in at 3.86%YoY compared to 1.66%YoY in corresponding period last year. Nevertheless, the figure came in below market expectations driving FY17 inflation expectations lower.

On the external front, CAD ballooned in 2MFY17 to 2.5% of GDP as compared to 1.4% in 2MFY16, exhibiting a sharp increase of 92%YoY to USD1.3 billion in 2MFY17 as opposed to USD686 million in 2MFY16. Deterioration in current account is mainly due to 1) 13%YoY increase in trade deficit owing to declining exports amid weak global demand and rising imports as non-oil imports remain elevated due to gradual pick up in machinery imports 2) higher services deficit in the absence of CSF inflows which contributed USD337 million in 2MFY16 and 3) lower workers remittances (USD3.1 billion vis-à-vis USD3.2 billion in 2MFY16) on account of slowdown in developed markets particularly in Gulf economies. On the other hand, backed by various inflows from multilateral and bilateral agencies, FX reserves touched highest ever tally of USD23.4bn, translating into an import cover of more than 5 months for the country. As a result, Rupee largely remained stable (-0.2%QoQ) against greenback in 1QFY17.

The Government performance on fiscal side remained unimpressive as revenue collections reported at PKR616 billion during 1QFY17 fell short by PKR70 billion against the target of PKR686 bn. The government may have to stretch their arms in order to meet overall tax collection target of PKR3.6 trillion where possibility of a mini budget cannot be ruled out. With the end of the IMF Extended Fund Facility in sight, the GOP shifted its borrowing burden to central bank by borrowing PKR580 billion while a debt worth PKR245 billion was retired from scheduled banks during the quarter. This resulted in a net increase in borrowing of PkR334 billion for budgetary support.

Government incessant push towards energy reforms, improvement in law and order situation and subsiding domestic and geopolitical tension will bode well for the economic growth prospects of the country going forward. Furthermore, ongoing development of the China Pakistan Economic Corridor is expected to provide required impetus to the growth. That said, increasing oil prices (post the OPEC decision to freeze output levels), weak remittances and declining exports may pose major challenges for the balance of payments.

MUTUAL FUND INDUSTRY REVIEW

Total assets under management (AUMs) of open end mutual funds recorded a massive growth of 13.1%QoQ in 1QFY17 (from PKR473 billion to PKR535 billion), mainly on account of substantial flows in equity and income funds categories. Despite subdued returns amidst low interest rates, fixed Income category improved by 11.2% during the quarter to PKR109 billion compared to PKR98 billion in June-16. On cumulative basis, the fixed income category (comprising of Income, Aggressive Income and Money Market funds) registered cumulative increase of 11.3% in 1QFY17 to close at PKR180 billion in September 30, 2016 compared to PKR162 billion in June 30, 2016. In line with conventional Fixed Income, Islamic Income Category also posted a handsome growth of 21.2% in AUMs to end the quarter at PKR36 billion.

FUND PERFORMANCE

During the period under review, ABL Income Fund posted an annualized return of 5.26% against the benchmark (6 month KIBOR) return of 6.03%, depicting an underperformance of 77 bps. Returns were mainly affected by valuation losses on

government securities on account of sharp reversal in bond yields due to higher inflation expectations amid increase in international crude prices. Further, status quo decisions in last 2 monetary policies against the expectation of cut in discount rate weaken market sentiments signalling the end of monetary easing cycle. Consequently, bond yields increased sharply across all tenors in the range of 9 to 30 bps. However, fund size of ABL IF increased by 6.45% to PKR 3.975 billion in Septem-ber 30, 2016 from PKR 3.734 billion as at June 30, 2016.

During the quarter, we increased allocation in PIBs and Spread Transactions in order to enhance portfolio yield. As a result, exposure to PIBs was increased to 17.68% of the fund compared to 12.85% in June 30, 2016. Moreover, we are maintaining a decent exposure of 8.86% in Spread Transactions at an attractive average rate of 6M KIBOR + 100bps. We reduced exposure in TFCs to 21.1% from 26.4% in June 30, 2016 in order to realize capital gains. At the end of period, exposure in cash and TDRs stood at 34.60% (down by 12.59%) and 6.17% (down by 1.14%) of the fund respectively while WAM of the fund was reduced to 714 days compared to 803 days in June 30, 2016.

AUDITORS

A. F. Ferguson & Co. (Chartered Accountants), on the recommendation of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors being eligible for re-appointment have been appointed as auditors for the year ending June 30, 2017 for ABL Income Fund (ABL-IF).

FUND STABILITY RATING

JCR-VIS Credit Rating Company Ltd. (JCR-VIS) on December 31, 2015, has revised the Fund Stability Rating of ABL Income Fund to ‘A(f)’ (Single A (f)).

MANAGEMENT QUALITY RATING

On May 04, 2016, JCR-VIS Credit Rating Company Limited has harmonized its notations for the Management Quality

Rating of ABL Asset Management Limited (ABL AMC) at ‘AM Two Plus’ (AM2+). Outlook on the assigned rating is ‘Stable’.

OUTLOOK

Pakistan’s economy is all-set to see a period of sustained economic growth with fast-track work on CPEC and gradual resolution of energy crisis which should result in overall uptick in manufacturing activity. Furthermore, interest rates are expected to remain stable in near term as we foresee CPI to hover below 4.5% for FY17 against the target of 6.0%. Similarly, strong FX reserves position on the back various inflows will continue to support the exchange rate. However, any sharp recovery in international commodity prices, domestic political uncertainty and worsening geopolitical tension would be key risk to the growth.

From the Income Fund’s perspective, we will increase duration of the fund by taking active bets on government bonds (short term) and TFCs. Further, we expect returns to remain stable due to mark to market gains on corporate bonds portfolio and higher accrual income on bank deposits, TDRs and Spread Transactions.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

We thank our valued investors who have placed their confidence in us. The Board is also thankful to Securities & Exchange Commission of Pakistan, the Trustee (Central Depository Company of Pakistan Limited) and the management of Pakistan Stock Exchange Limited for their continued guidance and support. The Directors also appreciate the efforts put in by the management team.

6.1 The Provincial Government of Sindh levied Sindh Sales Tax at the rate of 13% (June 2015: 14%) on the remuneration of the Management Company through the Sindh Sales Tax on Services Act, 2011.

6.2 As per the requirement of the Finance Act, 2013, Federal Excise Duty (FED) at the rate of 16% on the remuneration of the Management Company has been applied effective 13 June 2013. The Management Company is of the view that since the remuneration is already subject to the provincial sales tax, further levy of FED may result in double taxation, which does not appear to be the sprit of the law.

On September 04,2013 a constitutional petition has been filed in the Honourable Sindh High Court (SHC) jointly by various asset management Companies, together with their representative Collective Investment Schemes through their trustees, challenging the levy of FED.

Subsequent to year ended June 30, 2016, the SHC has passed an order whereby all notices, proceedings taken or pending, orders made, duty recovered or actions taken under the Federal Excise Act, 20015 in respect of the render-ing or providing of services (to the extent as challenged in any relevent petition) have been set aside. With effect from July 01, 2016, FED on services provided or rendered by non-banking financial institutions dealing in services which are subject to provincial sales tax has been withdrawn by the Finance Act, 2016.

In view of the above, the Fund has discontinued making further provision in respect of FED on management fee from July 01, 2016. However, the provision made till September 30, 2016, aggregating to Rs. 19.142 million has not been reversed as the management believes that the Federal Government retains the right to appeal against the said order in the Supreme Court within the prescribed timeline. Had the provision not been made, the Net Asset Value per unit of the Fund as at September 30, 2016 would have been higher by 0.0489 (June 2016: 0.0514) per unit.

6.3 During the year, the SECP vide SRO No 1160 (1) / 2015 dated November 25, 2015 introduced amendments in the NBFC regulations. As a result of thsese amendments, the Management Company of the Fund is entitled to reimbursement of fees and expenses incurred by the Management Company in relation to registrar services, accounting, operation and valuation services related to collective investment schemes upto maximum of 0.1% of the average annual net assets of the scheme or actual whichever is less.

7.1 Provision for Workers' Welfare Fund

7.1.1 The Finance Act, 2008 had introduced an amendment to the Workers' Welfare Fund Ordinance, 1971 (WWF Ordinance). As a result of this amendment it was construed that all Collective Investment Schemes / mutual funds (CISs) whose income exceeded Rs 0.5 million in a tax year had been brought within the scope of the WWF Ordinance, thus rendering them liable to pay contribution to WWF at the rate of two percent of their accounting or taxable income, whichever is higher. In this connection, a constitutional petition was filed by certain CISs through their trustees in the Honorable High Court of Sindh (the Court), challenging the applicability of WWF to the CISs, which is pending adjudication.

During the year ended June 30, 2012, the Honourable Lahore High Court (LHC) in a Constitutional Petition relating to the amendments brought in the WWF Ordinance, 1971 through the Finance Act, 2006 and the Finance Act, 2008, had declared the said amendments as unlawful and unconstitutional. In March 2013, a larger bench of the Honour-able Sindh High Court (SHC) passed an order declaring that the amendments introduced in the WWF Ordinance, 1971 through the Finance Act, 2006 and the Finance Act, 2008 do not suffer from any constitutional or legal infirmity. However, the Honorable High Court of Sindh has not addressed the other amendments made in the WWF Ordinance, 1971 about applicability of WWF to the CISs which is still pending before the Court. In May 2014, the Peshawar High Court (PHC) had also held these amendments to be ultra vires as they lacked the essential mandate to be introduced and passed through the Money Bill under the Constitution. Without prejudice to the above, the Management Company, as a matter of prudence and abundant caution, has made provision for WWF amounting to Rs 37.575 million uptil September 30, 2016. Had the same not been made the net asset value per unit of the Fund as at September 30, 2016 would have been higher by Re 0.0959 per unit (June 2016: Re. 0.1009).

7.1.2 The Finance Act, 2015 has excluded Mutual Funds and Collective Investment Schemes from the definition of 'Indus-trial establishment' subject to WWF under the WWF Ordinance, 1971. Accordingly, no further provision of WWF has been made from July 1, 2015. However, provision made till June 30, 2015 has not been reversed as the above law suit is still pending in SHC.

Further, Sindh Workers Welfare Fund (SWWF) Act 2014 enacted in June 2015 requires every Industrial Establish-

ment located in the province of Sindh and having total income of Rs. 500,000 or more, to pay two percent of so much of its total income declared to SWWF. The said Act includes any concern engaged in the Banking or Financial Institution in the definition of “Industrial Undertaking” but does not define Financial Institution. The Management Company, based on the opinion obtained by MUFAP from its advisor who is of the view that Collective Investment Schemes (CIS) are not financial institutions, believes that SWWF is not applicable on the Fund.
